I think the Man in the Moon will come down and sing me a song if I just dance harder for him. But that doesn't make it so.Only British Isles game I'm in right now is a 6 player game, and 4 of us have already commented on not liking the change.The other two haven't chatted since the change took place. That's a 66.666% disapproval rating so far.

There's the nostalgia thing to get over, but the old one got many many complaints on how hard it was to tell borders.

Not that it matters all that much- but I would just like to phone my two cents in and say that I love how the map looks now. British Isles was the first map I learned after Classic and it therefore remains in my top three maps of all time. Though I didn't have a problem with the other version, I love the new version in every way. Not until I saw this work of art did I realize how outdated and messy the original truly was.

Thanks for making one of my favorite maps even better

And comments like this make this all the worth while. Thanks lgoasklucyl!

It's got nothing to do with arrogance. It's all about respect.gimil has been on this revamp for over a year. The topic has been here for the whole time aswell. And the map wasn't quenched before all discussions were cleared up. If he hates this map so bad, first of all he should have come here to comment on the drafts. And now that it's quenched he's too late and pissed about it. That's not the way to go. I don't mind people having a different opinion. But you could come here and say

It's not "Oxen" (it's Oxon, CLICK HERE for more info), but I think the abbreviations are fine as they are to be honest. If people can't be bothered to read the map legend when they're playing CC they shouldn't be playing at all.

How about an apology for that insult.

Stop being so defensive.

I was talking in general - if people don't read the legends before they play a map it's their fault. I didn't click this topic with some preset knowledge that this happened to you. You didn't mention in the topic that you made this mistake, so how was my "insult" aimed at you?
